Unseasonably warm weather has us receiving calls asking when the boat docks will be going in. It is only March, so don’t expect that to happen until at least April. There is still ice on the lake, and we all know how Mother Nature can be.

The weather has allowed us to get an early start on spring improvements. Bud’s Point has been spruced up, and six new campsites have been added!
